Welcome to Life Therapies: Helping You Master the Art of Pain-Free Living

At our multidisciplinary clinic in Ottawa, we offer a combination of natural and traditional therapeutic services that treat the body as a whole. Because we understand how the body's systems are interconnected, our approach will help you to manage pain and balance your life.

Our Services

Osteopathy

Osteopathy focuses on more than just anatomy and physiology; it embraces the philosophy that the body has a natural ability to self-regulate and to heal itself. It's about how anatomy and physiology fit into a whole being.

More than a treatment, it's a philosophy

Osteopathic treatment addresses the individual as a whole by integrating the mind, body, and spirit to help you feel better.More about Osteopathy

Physiotherapy

Physiotherapists are primary health care professionals with advanced knowledge of how the body moves. They assess and treat ailments caused by illness, disease, sport injury, aging, and inactivity.

Pelvic Floor Physio

Dysfunction of the pelvic floor muscles can occur at any age. Conditions can include childhood bed wetting, bladder and bowel control issues, pelvic pain, painful intercourse, erectile dysfunction, organ prolapse, pregnancy and postpartum pain, and more.

REGAIN YOUR INNER STRENGTH

A pelvic floor physiotherapist will assess the status of the pelvic floor anatomy and associated joints to design a treatment plan specifically tailored to client dysfunction. This may include carefully cued and controlled exercise programs to treat dysfunction and speed recovery during and after pregnancy.More about Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a form of Chinese medicine that has been practiced for centuries. It is based on the theory that energy, called qi or chi, flows through and around your body along meridian pathways.

Bring Balance Back Into Your Life

Acupuncture involves the insertion of extremely thin needles through the skin at strategic meridian points on the body. By inserting needles into specific points, acupuncturists help re-balance the energy flow. Acupuncture is an excellent complimentary treatment to conventional therapies.More about Acupuncture

Our Areas of Expertise

Pain & Dysfunction

We know how pain can disrupt your life… it can shoot, ache, flare up, and ruin your sleep. Whether you’re suffering pain as a result of a recent injury or a more long-term movement dysfunction, our natural therapeutic methods are here to offer you relief.

Functional Movement & Sports

As we age, we need mobility and stability to accomplish daily tasks. Over time, however, many of us develop movement patterns that often cause more harm than good. Our natural methods will restore range of motion while building muscle.

Infants, Children & Adolescents

Occasionally, a trauma can create abnormal strain on a growing body. We believe that creating balance in the body is the key to living a pain-free life, a process that begins very early in life, and will allow your children to grow under the most optimal conditions.

Women’s Health

As a woman makes her way through life, she may experience various challenges along the way. Using a variety of natural skills and techniques, we address a range of concerns that define the core of female health. From fertility to prenatal and postnatal care, to menopause and even family planning, our therapists are here to help you live pain-free.

General Health & Wellness

Prevention of many health issues is one of our core beliefs because through preventative measures many other potentially worse conditions may be avoided. Our approach of blending the science of medicine with the art of healing actually has a great number of general health and wellness benefits, while having amazing preventative potential.
